Ikelite DS165 Overview

The Ikelite DS165 TTL Underwater Strobe and European power supply is a powerful, travel-friendly flash that helps deliver sharper, more professional-looking underwater images. The strobe is controlled with 10 steps in 1/2-stop increments. The DS165 emits a 120° video light beam of 5000k light, which balances with available light underwater to provide richer coloring and deeper blue water backgrounds. The cells in the included NiMH battery pack have been proven to outperform alkaline and lithium cells in real-world underwater conditions, including the temperature fluctuations and storage conditions of the photographer diver.

The DS165 incorporates a powerful 2500-lumen video light beam, allowing you to effortlessly switch between stills and video.
A custom-formulated ABS-PC blend makes the strobe fundamentally corrosion-proof and over 0.5 lb lighter than aluminum body strobes.
The robust dial controls are now even larger and taller for comfortable use with even the thickest gloves. A slide lock prevents the strobe from accidentally being turned on when not in use.
Trigger the DS165 directly from your camera using either an electrical sync cord with an ICS-5 plug or by adding an optional fiber-optic converter. The DS165 supports exposure communication with most popular camera models using high-accuracy TTL converters.
Remote triggering is supported by both optional extension cords and/or optical slave converters. Position your strobes at a distance from your camera for a variety of creative lighting setups, including cave lighting, off-camera wreck lighting, and pool studio photography.
The battery pack attaches quickly and easily with a unique toggle lock that prevents accidental floods. You don't even need to lubricate the O-ring. The strobe front is compatible with older NiMH battery packs or the DS165 strobe battery pack.
